The GIC sometimes need to sample the physical line of a mapped interrupt. As we know this to be notoriously slow, provide a callback function for devices (such as the timer) which can do this much faster than talking to the distributor, for example by comparing a few in-memory values. Fall back to the good old method of poking the physical GIC if no callback is provided.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
